What is Corten Weathering Steel?
In the 1930s, manufacturers used weathering steel, commonly known as Corten steel, for rail cars due to its enhanced durability and resistance to corrosion. The name “Corten” originates from the properties that make the steel unique: “CORrosion resistance” and “TENsile strength.” Corten steel’s applications have evolved, and it is now incorporated into large outdoor structures like bridges, roofs, walls, and sculptures.
Corten steel panels are famous for their unique appearance, usually golden brown or dark orange, and for enduring diverse weather conditions. Over time, a rustic layer eventually coats the surface, giving it its unique and attractive colour.
Corten’s self-passivating quality sets it apart from other steel products. This rusting process forms a stable, durable barrier that prevents further corrosion and enhances the material’s longevity. That is why Corten steel is attractive and reliable in terms of strength and longevity for extreme weather conditions.
